Update: New Restaurant to fill old Seven Hills Market space
Richmond magazine reports that
Brian Munford, owner and chef of Patina Grill in western Henrico County, is working toward opening a new restaurant in South Richmond with a partner, former Bottega chef Travis Milton. If things go as planned, the Parkside Cafe will be open in November at the corner of Forest Hill and Semmes avenues, in the space formerly occupied by Seven Hills Market. Munford said it won’t be just like Patina Grill, a West End favorite — it will have a lighter touch, will be less pricey and will have more of a Fan District look and a neighborhood feel. And unlike Patina Grill, Parkside likely will be open for lunch.
That would be so cool!! Patina Grill has always been a favorite of mine, even if it is in the . . . urk . . . west end.
Yay! My curiosity was killing me! And it sounds like a great addition to the neighborhood!
Yum! I love Patina and the dishes Brian comes up with. This will be great.
Alright! I love Patina, just hate the drive. Can’t get a bottle of wine and drive back home, but with the new Parkside Cafe, I can walk, or dare bike!! Yeah! Can’t wait for this to open up!
This will be great for the neighborhood. But we need to support it!
Hey does anyone know what is going on with this place? Is it still going to go in there or is it avaliable for rent?
Yes Parkside is still slated to go in there. I wish I could give you a definite date on when. Soon is the vague answer I heard a month or so ago.
